We use 100+ Wilo pumps per year and they have been holding up a lot better than the Taco , in open and closed loop systems

2" foam is the only way to go !

 Bubble foil insulation is great for roof and walls , I have used it on just about every building I've built here , including under the vinyl siding on our house , the only true value bubble foil ins has , is the foil , the foil will reflect 97% of the heat  ( according to the sales rep I used to buy truckloads of it from when I was in the pole building industry ) the catch is that you have to have an air space for the heat to reflect .

When the foil is in contact , it will actually conduct , not reflect , all that the bubbles do at that point is create a thermal break .

Hot air rises , heat radiates 360 deg , your concrete slab will be in contact will the soil , ( 50 -53 deg ? ) , your goal is to stop the loss of heat to the soil .

R = resistance to heat loss , the higher the R value , the higher your resistance is to heat loss .

Sorry if my rant bored you , but next to wood stoves and Milwaukee tools , I love saving energy  ( and money saved by saving energy ).

I'm familiar with the Empyre and see no reason why you can't get 20yrs out of it .

As long as you're using 1" pex line and not going too much over 100' one way you should be fine w/ a single Taco 0011

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: Clothes Dryer?
« on: February 25, 2013, 08:48:15 PM »
Scott , I had a customer who put a 12 x 12 heat exchanger on his dryer . He claimed that he was only getting 100deg air temps coming out of the coil and in comparison to the original electric dryer it took him twice as long to dry a load of wash , but he didn't mind , because this was free !

Anyhow , I have an extra dryer that I thought about converting , ( I have no idea when I'll find time ) . I'll be looking forward to hear how this works out for you .

   Good Luck !

Depends on how crooked of a log you are thinking of , but it doesn't do too bad , you may have o stop and twist the log a little sometimes

Dyna Products makes a unit that will cut and split up to 14" , it has a live deck , 2 or 4 way  split  , hydraulic powered saw and the option of  a conveyor .
It starts at 10,500 w/ a 13hp Honda     , $12,500 for the 20hp Honda and a larger pump , and the optional 8' conveyor is $2500

It is 5' to the outside of the wheels about 16' max length overall   .

I personally own and use the  SC14 which will cut up to 18"
